SAMOAN-BORN NURSES.
TRAINING AT AUCKLAND HOSPITAL. AUCKLAND, July 14. Arrangements have been made by the Administrator of Samoa with the Auckland Hospital Board for a certain number of Samoan-born girls to be trained as nurses at the Auckland Hospital with a view to the girls subsequently returning to Samoa, and taking up duty at the Apia Hosnital. This will eventually result in a reduction in the number of nursing sisters reauired in Samoa from the New Zealand Nursing Division, and is in furtherance of his Excellency's desire to utilise to the utmost the services of local-born people in the administration of Samoa. Under this arrangement two Samoan-born girls, Misses Lyddall and B. E. Netzier, arrived by the Tofua.
